vintage paper advertisingPendleton's 5-10-15 Cent Store  This must have been the equivalent to today's .99 Cent Store.  I wonder what the level of quality was for stuff priced at .15 cents or less.  This measures about 10" tall and 30" long.  It is on oiled or waxed oak tag or something like that that would stand up to outside placement.  It is original and old, and I have several.

vintage advertisingPawling & Harnischfeger Cast Iron Plaque  This firm was organized in the 1880's and only lasted a few years before one of the original partners passed, but their cast iron plaque lives on.   Very nice condition, and measures approx 12" long and 8" tall.   A Google search turned up pages of info on the company and both of its founders.  Check there for more.     Click for Pic

vintage advertisingDover Stamping Co. Promotional Give-a-Way Dish Pan  This little Dover advertising piece is a miniature dish pan given away to promote this New England company's wares.  It measures only 4" across the top but looks like the real thing.  The paper label on the inside is the typical label they used to mark their goods at that time.  On the outside is an additional label that reads "This is a miniature model of the New Dover Roll Edge Dish Pan.  What's the use of handles anyway?"  You will love the condition of this piece!

barbasolBarbasol for Modern Shaving   I guess "modern" shaving refers to shaving with an safety razor rather than a straight razor.  This is a great lot of original new-old-stock packaging that includes 2 large tubes and 4 small tubes of the stuff in their original red, white and blue boxes, and an outer box that the smaller tubes would have packed in, with good graphics on it as well.
